UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

A huge part of this is shamelessness. But we also have to be honest: the Hunter thing didn't just happen.
Trump used every lever of government—especially the GOP and the House Oversight Committee—to make it happen.
And it still wouldn't have meant shit without Murdoch/Musk media obessing on it.

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

IMHO this article will hold up very well. Time to stop obsessing with potential AGI and dealing with the very real consequences of the LLM tech, which will never overcome its inherent limitations, but nevertheless wreak havoc.
ChatGPT and other LLMs aren't about to produce superintelligence, but if this is it, it's still changed the world. Not necessarily for the better.
I did a big picture look at AI, comparing it to search and social media, On business, politics, education, misinfo, ability to grasp reality, and more.
